Synopsis
The wisdom of the upper Midwest is found in the minds and hearts of the people who live there. Wisdom is expressed in the stories people tell of earlier days and earlier times. Stories of happiness and hard work. Stories of hardship and joy. As rural people tell their stories, remember them, for in these stories are the values and beliefs that have been passed on from generation to generation, and make the upper Midwest what it is today. Noted author Jerry Apps collected these oft spoken phrases, observations, comments and conundrums. Together with striking photographs by his son, Steve Apps, staff photographer for the Wisconsin State Journal, the statements lend humorous. touching, unique glimpses into rural life in the upper Midwest. Book jacket.

    I had a question about the magazine and the seller was very prompt in answering it. The magazine was sent out promptly and packed very securely in plastic for protection. I am more than happy with the condition of it, as it obviously was the same as the photo shown, and feel it was worth money asked for it. Going by my experience, I feel the seller is a very good choice to buy from!
